One important aspect of story telling is the way characters are introduced and then moved through the story. Telling a story to a naïve listener places varied demands on a speaker. As the story plot develops, the speaker must set and re-set these parameters for referring to characters, as well as the temporal and spatial parameters of the story. To these cognitive and linguistic tasks is the added social and pragmatic task of monitoring the knowledge and attention states of their listener. The speaker must ensure that the listener can identify the characters, and so must anticipate their listener’s knowledge and on-going mental image of the story. How speakers do this depends on cultural conventions and on the resources of the language(s) they speak. For the child speaker the development narrative competence involves an integration, on-line, of a number of skills, some of which are not fully established until the later childhood years.

  • Conference Abstracts
    Keynote Abstracts Referential functions and the construction of prominence profiles Professor Petra Schumacher, University of Cologne (Monday, Dec 10th, 2 pm, H2-16) Referential expressions are essential ingredients for information processing. Speakers use particular referential forms to convey different discourse functions and thus shape the 'prominence profile' that organizes referents in discourse representation. The prominence profile, i.e. the ranking of the referential candidates, feeds into expectations for upcoming discourse referents and interacts with the choice of referential forms (e.g., less informative referential forms are more likely to refer to more prominent referents). The prominence profile can further be changed as discourse unfolds, i.e. certain referential expressions such as demonstratives can raise the prominence status of their referents. The talk discusses various cues that contribute to the dynamic construction of prominence profiles and presents evidence for the different referential functions from behavioral and event-related potential studies. Manifestations of complexity in grammar and discourse Professor Walter Bisang, University of Mainz (Wednesday, Dec 12th, 9 am, H2-16) Linguistic discussions on complexity come in various shades. Some models are based on cognitive costs and difficulty of acquisition, others look at the properties of the form by which grammatical distinctions are expressed and connected, yet another group of linguists focus on recursion and merge and, finally, complexity can be measured in terms of algorithmic information theory. What is common to the above approaches is their concentration on linguistic form. In my presentation, I argue that form is only one side of complexity. If one looks at complexity from the perspective of the two competing motivations of explicitness vs.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Sydney eScholarship Anderson, Jane and Grace Koch. “The politics of context: issues for law, researchers and the creation of databases”. Researchers, Communities, Institutions, Sound Recordings, eds. Linda Barwick, Allan Marett, Jane Simpson and Amanda Harris. Sydney: University of Sydney, 2003. This paper was originally published online as a refereed conference paper through Open Conference Systems by the University of Sydney, Faculty of Arts in 2004. 2 The politics of context: issues for law, researchers and the creation of databases Jane Anderson and Grace Koch Field recordings generate dilemmas that need to be addressed by intellectual property law, researchers, and the creators of databases containing Indigenous knowledge. Firstly, format changes such as digitisation provide legal challenges in accommodating the various rights and interests brought about by such changes. Secondly, ethical issues arise for researchers as they act at the interface between Indigenous people and the field recordings that they make. For instance, when researchers lodge their recordings in cultural institutions, they become responsible for providing an accurate interpretation and clarification of the original context of the recordings. Such information is fundamental in helping to determine the rights and interests held in the material, both at the time of the recording and in the future. Finally, for database designers and users, complex questions arise about the nature of database design and configuration as these directly affect the organisation and hence representation of Indigenous cultural material. This paper is based on a case study of field tapes recorded in Central Australia in 1976.

    BOOK REVIEWS Daughters of the Dreaming. By Diane Bell. Allen & Unwin, Sydney, 1993. First published 1983. Second edition with new foreword and epilogue. Pp. 342. Black and white illustrations, bibliography, index. $1.95 p.b. In this, the second edition of a monograph first published in 1983, the original text is unaltered except for minor corrections, but Diane Bell has added a short foreword and a 27- page epilogue. I reviewed the original text in Aboriginal History (vol. 8) and stand by what I wrote then:- 'Her book ... represents a major contribution to our knowledge of past and present Aboriginal societies and demonstrates the significance of women in every aspect of community existence.' Since its publication a number of women have engaged in research into various aspects of the lives of Aboriginal women and have written MA or PhD theses of considerable importance. They have produced articles in books and journals, but no monographs. An outstanding collection about South Australian Aboriginal women edited by Peggy Brock was published in 1989 under the title Women, rites and sites: Aboriginal women's cultural knowledge. In her foreword to the new edition Bell explains that she had decided not to alter the original text (except for minor corrections) because this had historical relevance in reflecting some of the values of the early 1980s both in anthropology and in her own development. In her epilogue she describes some of the changes in anthropological theory particularly where the study of women's society is concerned. Much of the epilogue is a discussion of the development during the last ten years of feminist anthropological theory, a discussion which would be helpful for any woman embarking on fieldwork today.

Yawulyu (in Warlpiri and Warumungu) and Awelye (in Kaytetye and other Arandic languages) are cognate names for women’s country-based rituals, including songs, dancing, ritual objects and knowledge surrounding particular country and Dreaming stories. In the course of our research we spoke to women from different communities, different age groups, different language groups, and different clans, seeking to open discussion about past and contemporary practices of learning, performing and teaching this performance-based knowledge, to help us to understand what the practitioners saw as the most fruitful ways of sustaining the traditions, as well as what difficulties they saw in their way. In this article we present statements from many of the women interviewed, highlighting the key issues that emerged and discussing the role of recordings and other documentation of performances for the future sustainability of the various yawulyu/awelye traditions discussed.
